You could be the next AppCampus developer to receive funding, coaching and marketing support for your app

Microsoft, Nokia, and Aalto University have collaborated to create the AppCampus program with the goal of creating a new generation of self-sustaining mobile startups by providing funding, coaching, and marketing support for your innovative mobile app ideas. The program fosters app development on Windows Phone and other Nokia platforms, encourages innovation, and creates new business opportunities in the mobile ecosystem.

In the year since the program has launched, it has gained significant momentum, having received 3,500 submissions, funded 180 app projects, and released over 40 high-quality apps.

Now, we are excited to offer a fast-track to AppCampus grants through the Mobile App Acceleration Camp (MAAC) in over 30 countries! MAAC, held in partnership with local accelerator and incubator partners, offers expert insights and assistance to local developers and helps them become eligible for AppCampus grants sooner.

I strongly encourage you to take advantage of the AppCampus resources to build the next great mobile app. Here are two ways you can get started:
